We hope you enjoy the first issue of Advancing Women in Leadership in its entirety and that you look forward to the subsequent issues to be published in August and November. We want this journal to serve women and girls around the world and to be viewed as a professional publication site for the scholarly inquiry that advances women in leadership. The editors appreciate all of the scholars who have agreed, thus far, to serve on the Editorial Advisory Board and the Editorial Review Board. We are also grateful to our publisher, Gretchen Glasscock, for her hard work and her willingness to assist women internationally. We welcome suggestions of topics for upcoming issues and encourage the submission of manuscripts. (See the Call for Manuscripts/Publication Guidelines for details.)
